After a trial of three days, he was convicted of trespass and his head chopped oft and hung en n pole in the ccntre of the grave, as a pointed warning for his followers. Frem this lime en they jwore quiet, though continually menacing and watching for an opportunity te attack the colony. 'In 1800 the first church was built! it was a wooden building occupying the present slte of Center church en the Orccn and the forerunner of the present edlOcc, It was fifty feet aquare with a pyramldel reef, surmounted by a tower, which was arranged as a sort of fort, whero wcre placed men te watch', lest the Indians should Interrupt the Bcrvlcca. The cltymllltlA were given scats near each deer te be In readiness. Be at an early hour Sunday morning, at the call of the town dremmer, the clllzens, well armed, renlnred te church. As no stoves wero allowed In tbe church, even as late as 1820, the men carried feet eleves for the wemen. During the short Intermis sion the worshipers would run home, ret warm, cat a lunch anil return te Its ratification, shiver and hear the rest of the sermon. The present Orecn was used as a ceme tery from 1039 te 1700. It was sur rounded with a high beard fence, painted red. llcre and In the crypt of Ccnter church Ue the remains of many dlstln milshcd men In church and state, litera ture and politics, ornaments te the little struggling colony In former days and new honored by their descendants.

The bodies were home en the shoulders of the bearers, who wero always furnished with nlnobeforo and after the services, te strengthen their nerves, It Is supposed. During the revolutionary period the city played an Important part, hhe sent many brave men from her rocky hills te the front te battle for thW new republic. Among the names of her famous men are thoseof Oen. Woestor, llegcr Sherman, Admiral Toeto and many mero, besides that man, dotestftble te every loyal Ameri can cltizen, lJenedlct Arneld. This last man, who enjoyed the oxcluslve title as hb country's traitor, nover steed high In the cstcem of his fellow townsmen. In personal appcarance he was tall, erect, with a treacherous leek, and even bofero his treasonable actions was disliked by his neighbors. On the Cth of July, 1770, two ships of the British squadron landed at the harbor aud sent two divisions of Infantry te sack the town. After several small skirmishes en the evening of that day the redcoats had possession of the city. Werd was sent out te neighboring towns, and all night the rustic mllllla poured into town nnd next werulng compelled the half drunken Englishmen te licat a hasty re treat te their 03seh.

One of tbe most fascinating of the dances was the Pierrot, it Is performed In a great varlety of fanlastle movements, with advances and retreats In long lines. In ene of the figures the gentlemen drop en their knoes, wblle tbe ladles clrcle about them, clapping their bands In con cert. A triple tableau In crimson light closed the performance. The ladles wero all clad In pink and whlle. The dress, cut low and Dlled In with lace ruchlngs, was draped with a wlde rich sash below the waist.

Tbe Oreclan cymbal dance was by far the most graceful of all. It was the only dance performed by ladles only. It Is executed by twenty-four young ladles. In tbe dance thore Is a beautiful sole, which was given te tbe musle of a Grecian melody. The dancers ndvanced te the musle of a march, in deuble lines, with gauzy scarfs threo jards in length held high with both hands abeve their lieads, w 1th ends floating backward.

The Hungarian Gypsy dance closed the serles. Tbe costumes wero varied nnd adorned with sequins and embroidery In cold. Each gypsy girl carried a tambour ine, decorated w 1th painted designs. The most conspicuous among them was n gypsy queen, who dauced a sole with en chanting grace. The men came en the stage In dark vclvet knee breeches, and wearing stockings In varied colors. Tbe dance was a succession et brilliant, rapidly changing movements. At ene point tbe retreating figure of the queen was followed the entire length of tbe Btage by a long, radiant line of gypsy glrla, with loosely flowing hair and filing, bright liued ribbons, shaking their tambourines in the air with most novel effect.

About a year age certain members of the Vlgllante Order of Hald Ivnebbers In Missouri, under their chlef, David Walker, went te tbe heuse of Wil liam Edcns, as they oipressed It "te have some. bald knobbing fun." They were met by Fdens and Charles Green; fir ing began, result ing In tbe killing of Walkers seu en the ene bUe nnd Diens and Green en the ether. The trial of DAVID WALKCR. David Walker for the sheeting of these two men has Just been cencluded at Ozark, Me., and be has becn found guilty. Walker Is described as a man of flue pbyslque, 44 years of ego. He was born In Kentucky, but went te Missouri with his parents when he was 4 years of age.

Except In lery cold weather tbere should always be two pcu windows in eaeh room en opposite sides. "If we should fellow that iidiice," tbe horrified reader will exclaim, "we should all catch n fatnl cold. Don't I remember n dozen colds I get by being expo!ed te n sudden draft? Onlyn few nights age, when I occupied a seat near the deer of a theatre, the deer was left open during the intermission, and the draft, though pleasant enough, gave me n bad cold. Ne, thank jeu, no draftt, for mel" This logic seems geed, yet it is utter sophistry As it metaphysician would say, the draft was only tbe occasion, net the real cause of the cold. Tbe real cause was ths foul, het nlr in tbe theatre, which demoralized jour skin nnd relaxed its bleed lessels, se that they were unable te react suddenly and endure tbe healthful cool air from the street, Iu ether words, It was net tbe draft that gaie you the cold, but the sudden transition from het te cold nlr. Such a transition is nlways Injurious te the skin, whether it be from both te cold or from cold te het nlr. Hut If jouero net overheated, n current of cold air is never injurious. The Epoch.

A Steady Stream of Shep Girl, Working women and Men, Morning aad Evening. Patrons of the Footpath Startling Sta tUttea Cost and Frent. The day en the bridge begins early. At 0 o'clock in the morning the cars begin te rnn under a minute and a hah! headway. The crowds pour in and what is known as the "rash hours" begin. These are hours et hard work for every ene, from the superintendent et the read down te the humblest brakeman. The llttle dummy engines that run the thrce car trains from the station out te the point where the cable connects with tbe grip rush back ward and forward, puffing nnd snorting nnd making a tremendous amount et noise. This is nt 7:30 en the Brooklyn slde. About 75,000 New Yerk business men and workmen, who use Brooklyn ns a bed room, are getting ready te launch them selves into New Yerk. At 7:43 the stream is at high tide. At two glass covered boxes within the spot where three men are laboring with frantic energy te give out tickets and make change, two stal wart men stand te see that every passen ger deposits a ticket. These men need te be alert and quick eyed, for 200 persons per minute are passing by these two glass ticket boxes. It may seem easy work te watch 12,000 tickets per hour dropped In In eo n glass box, but the guards say it bes the effect of giving ene the vertigo. l' rem 7 o'cieck until u.w the stream of humbly clad shop girls and working women and men is kept steadily up, and seme twenty odd thousand passengers are carried ever the river. Thrce cars start each minute and a half, but in the sec onds that they are at n standstill each of the cars is amply packed with ten tens of humanity. This rush is kept up until 0.30 o'clock, nfter which there is n lull, the number et passengers passing the ticket offices falling gradually from 12,000 te 0,000 per hour. Approaching neon it Is even less en the Droeklyn side, but nfter this hour en the New Yerk slde the thousands that thronged te New Yerk are hurrying back again, and after 4 o'clock Droeklyn begins te regain its population at tbe rate of from 200 te 800 per minute. rATROSS OF THE TOOTWAV. Of ceurse these figures dca4 simply with the railway. The footpath is less patron ized new than fermeily. There were 1154,004 less persons who used It last year than tbe year before, desplte the fact that nny ene who wishes te buy tickets by the bunch may walk oicrthe bridge nnd get the finest views imaginable for the net nstennding sum of one-fifth et a cent. The footway is, popular only en very mild days, when it is the resort favored of geed looking nurses with distracting French capB, w he wheel baby carriages and ad mire the big policemen. The receipts of the foetivay last year amounted te some thing ever $10,000, which would scarcely pay its expenses, and it has licen proposed te make it free. This will scarcely be done, for making it free would be throw ing it open te tramps or werse charac ters, and making an increase et pollce necessary. The bridge railroad last year carried 27,040,813 persons, nn incrcase of 3,011, 010 ever the year before, nnd the receipts in money from it wcre $703,708.70. The fare is thrce cents par passage or ten tickets for twenty-flve cents. The gcnernl average of passengers upon the bridge read is about 00,000 per day, but upon foggy days, when tbe ferries are ob structed, the figures sometimes reach 125, 000. Iu ether w olds enough peoplepass ever the Brooklyn bridge every day In the cars te pepulate three or four towns out west, tlect n few congressmen, build several railroads, get up corners in wheat nnd perk nnd brlug out a presidential can didate. EOME MOUE STATISTICS. Hut there are some mero statistics with which net ene person in n hundred even et these who cress the bridge daily are ac quainted nnd familiar. One million forty ferty beven thousand nl no hundred nnd sixty eight vehicles crossed the bridge during last year. Each vchlcle Is estimated te rarry thrce passengers. This cstimate is taken by reason of tbe number of funerals that dally pais en their way te Grcen Grcen Grcen woetl, the great "City et the Dead." The receipts from vehicles were 05,713.20.
